About Incontinence

Incontinence, also “urinary incontinence”, is a term used for loss of control in the bladder. Often, this condition is a usual part of aging, but it can affect people from all walks of life. The good news is this can commonly be treated or managed.

It is hard to keep track of the number of people who have this condition. Mostly, people who suffer from incontinence are embarrassed and would prefer to suffer in silence. However, according to the statistics of the American Urological Association, a quarter to a third of people in the U.S. have suffered or are suffering from urinary incontinence.

Here are the types of incontinence:

  • Stress incontinence – This is due to the pressure or stress in the urinary bladder.
  • Urge incontinence – This refers to the strong urge to urinate and the urine leaking before you can reach the toilet.
  • Overflow incontinence – This happens when the bladder fails to empty fully.
  • Functional incontinence – This is because of a mental or physical disability.
  • Transient incontinence – This is caused by a temporary situation, like having an infection or taking certain medications.
  • Mixed incontinence – This means having more than one type of incontinence.
  • Bedwetting – This refers to the leaking of urine during sleep.
